Frequently Asked Questions
-
Water Runner started in Midland, Texas. Today we are one of the largest water delivery networks in the region. Our core coverage includes West Texas, Southeast New Mexico, East Texas, and Central Texas. We also run projects reaching into Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas. Dispatch locations across each area let us respond quickly. We hold a state-level emergency response contract with the government of Louisiana for hurricanes and disasters. Using our own fleet plus our vetted owner-operator network, we can move about twice the capacity of our own trucks on large projects. With advance scheduling, we can deploy across all lower 48 states.
-
We deliver three main types of water by the tanker load: potable drinking water, reverse osmosis (R.O.) water, and deionized (D.I.) water. The right choice depends on your needs. That may be drinking and general-use water, high-purity water for industrial processes, or ultra-pure water for manufacturing and lab work.
-
Water Runner sources potable water mainly from high-quality, TCEQ-approved cities across our service areas. Using city water lets us keep quality consistent over a wide area. It also lets us build long-term supply ties with the utilities we rely on. We vet every source with care. We also hold our tanks, fittings, and transfer equipment to strict cleaning and safety standards, so water stays protected from loading through final delivery. For regional projects near our Midland hub, we also run our own TCEQ-approved well. It draws from the Edwards Trinity Aquifer, one of the cleanest groundwater sources in West Texas.
-
Yes. Water Runner is a TCEQ-licensed bulk water supplier. Every source we use is TCEQ-approved. We filter our water with modern purification technology and test it often in the lab. Our drinking water meets or beats State of Texas and EPA standards. Our delivery equipment is built to meet all state and federal rules.
-
We handle orders from 300 gallons up to 3 million gallons. With our own fleet plus our vetted owner-operator network, we can send a single tanker for a home pool fill. We can also supply steady, high-volume water for large industrial, construction, and city projects.
-
Yes. Bulk water delivery and emergency water supply are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Our water treatment team also offers 24/7 emergency response. This helps customers who cannot lose water supply, such as dialysis centers, data centers, and industrial sites.
-
Water Runner runs several water stations across our service areas. These include 24/7 self-serve stations and staffed stations with on-site crew.

We mainly serve oil and gas, construction, data centers, healthcare and dialysis facilities, hospitality, water utilities and cities, chemical processing, food and beverage, power generation, and manufacturing. We also hold government contracts for emergency and disaster response. And we serve homeowners across our entire coverage area.
-
Yes. Emergency water supply is a core service and one of our fastest-growing. We are contracted for state-level disaster response, including a standing agreement with the government of Louisiana for hurricanes and severe weather. We also dispatch often for water main breaks, utility outages, and steady supply for medical and dialysis facilities. Response times depend on location and scale. We suggest calling dispatch as early as you can when a risk event is forecast or underway.
-
Yes. Pool fills are one of our most common home services. Our website has a pool volume calculator for round, oval, and rectangular pools, so you can estimate the gallons you need before you request a quote. Tanker delivery is much faster than a garden hose. It also avoids long strain on your home plumbing.
-
Yes. We sell and rent potable water storage tanks for business and home customers. These serve oil and gas rigs, man camps, construction sites, ranches, emergency backup systems, and farms. Rentals work for short projects or long ones, and we include delivery, setup, and pickup. All tanks are cleaned, inspected, and meet state and federal potable water safety standards.
-
Yes. Our team designs, installs, starts up, maintains, and repairs custom water treatment systems. These include reverse osmosis and deionization, filtration and softening, UV and disinfection, pH adjustment and chemical dosing, and high-volume storage and recirculation. We also upgrade and retrofit existing systems for better performance and efficiency.

Water Runner was founded in Midland nearly three decades ago. Since then we have grown into one of the largest water delivery and treatment networks in the region. We cover West Texas, Southeast New Mexico, East Texas, and Central Texas, with contracted response reaching as far as Louisiana. We combine our own fleet, our vetted owner-operator network, long-standing ties with TCEQ-approved city sources, and our own sourcing and treatment setup. This lets us take on projects of nearly any size while keeping rates competitive. Every delivery is backed by a team built for 24/7 response and long-term relationships with cities, contractors, operators, and the communities we serve.
